Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic HCM. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.
Urge incontinence is very common a problem worldwide, but fortunately it is curable with medications.
Evaluation and workup is the key to diagnosis:-
And I usually start with history, examination and urine complete analysis through a laboratory testing.
Further testing is needed which is a list of battery of test and some of them selected on the basis of pre-evaluation, are needed to run on every patient. In my clinical experience I usually need the following important diagnostics to run on almost every patient. I request you to consult your treating physician and get an insight on these diagnostics and it will aid in resolve the issue after proper diagnosis.
**Volume of urine leftover just after the urination.
**
Cough stress test
**Bladder capacity (functional).
Medication Guide:-
If I was your treating physician and diagnosis was confirmed, I would have prescribed you with
Tolterodine and of course a follow up after 2 weeks.
Caution:-
The possibility of
urinary tract infection,
diabetes mellitus and any kind of blockage to the
urinary system anywhere along the pathway is necessary before getting started with the treatment.
